Former Presidential hopeful and celebrated publisher, Bashorun Dele Momodu has urged Nigerians to stop casting aspersions on the government saying criticisms seems to have failed.

He however revealed that the new trend should be resorting to begging for the leaders to be compassionate on the mass of Nigerian populace. He made this known on micro blogging site Twitter when he twitted via his @DeleMomodu saying “I think it is useless criticising govt in Nigeria; the new experiment is to start begging our Leaders to have pity and mercy on us!”.

The veteran journalist who is also the Publisher/CEO of Ovation International is known for his robust and articulate views on issues especially about the country. He is one of the few statesmen who have employed the use of social media to air their views about raging topics in the nation.

This position has gotten several responses which are mostly in support of the call on social networking site Twitter.
